Dec 12 13:01:09 <falk0n> hello all,
Dec 12 13:02:59 <falk0n> I was trying to update my fonera with a firmware I have compiled (I have got the sources from svn.fonosfera.org), but once I try to update the firmware using the firmware-fonera2n.tgz It does the count down but it does not change the firmware
Dec 12 13:03:27 <falk0n> is there any other procedure that I should use (right now I'm using the developer version (ssh) )
Dec 12 13:12:20 <blathijs> falk0n: Are you upgrading from a recent 2.3.7.0 beta or rc version? Earlier versions don't support unsigned tarballs
Dec 12 13:12:41 <blathijs> Other than that, it should work (I use that procedure all the time)
Dec 12 13:13:01 <blathijs> Perhaps you've mixed 2.0n and 2.0g firmware tarballs? That results in silent failure
Dec 12 13:13:09 <falk0n> yes, I'm upgrading from 2.3.7.0 rc2
Dec 12 13:13:25 <blathijs> Hmm, weird
Dec 12 13:13:38 <blathijs> Alternatively, you could try flashing through SSH: http://trac.fonosfera.org/fon-ng/wiki/sshflash
Dec 12 13:13:50 <blathijs> (then use the .img file, not the .tar.gz)
Dec 12 13:13:52 <falk0n> what I was trying to achieve is to put IPv6 for local users
Dec 12 13:14:36 <falk0n> yes, I also did that and when I finished the fonera was not dead but ... I needed to use the restore from tftp
Dec 12 13:14:56 <falk0n> because is was like dead
Dec 12 13:15:22 <falk0n> is there a way that I can use opkg to install ipv6 on my fonera
Dec 12 13:15:41 <falk0n> I used opkg install radvd and opkg install kmod-ipv6
Dec 12 13:15:48 <blathijs> Possibly. Some of the the ipv6 modules are built by the autobuilder, but not included in the firmware
Dec 12 13:15:58 <falk0n> but the modules were from another kernel (2.6.27 I think)
Dec 12 13:16:29 <falk0n> because the radvd installed correctly but couldn't run because it doesn't have the ipv6 packet type
Dec 12 13:16:53 <blathijs> falk0n: The kmod-ipv6 package here should work: http://download.fonosfera.org/auto-builds/fon-ng/fon-ng-r2222/fonera2n/packages/mipsel/
Dec 12 13:16:55 <falk0n> it was because of that, I started to build my one version of fonera (from fonera sources) the svn
Dec 12 13:16:59 <blathijs> (r2222 == rc2)
Dec 12 13:17:24 <falk0n> ok :) cool :) I will email me that (because now I'm at work :p)
Dec 12 13:17:30 <blathijs> We enabled building the ipv6 modules exactly for this reason, so people could experiment without having to build a completely new firmware
Dec 12 13:17:33 <blathijs> hehe
Dec 12 13:17:42 <blathijs> Let me know if you get this to work, I'm curious :-)
Dec 12 13:17:48 <blathijs> But first: lunch!
Dec 12 13:18:09 <falk0n> yes :)
Dec 12 13:18:14 <falk0n> thank you
Dec 12 13:18:22 <falk0n> good lunch for you too :)
